Bright
ideas
sometimes come from the darkest places
May the seeds of
today be the fruits of tomorrow
Aspire to
climb as high as you can dream

thing in the world is not so much where we stand, but in which direction we are
going

measured by heights attained, but by obstacles overcome
Always set
the trail, never follow the path
You can't set
the course for where you're going until you know where you are
Let the
dreams of today determine the opportunities of tomorrow

granite which was an obstacle in the path of the weak, becomes a stepping stone
in the path of the strong

thoroughly enjoy idling around, one must have plenty of work to do.
If
it's stupid and it works - it isn't stupid
